The Basilica of Saint Therese of Lisieux, a major Catholic pilgrimage site, was constructed from 1929 to 1951 and features an interior adorned with ornate mosaics and marble. The basilica is dedicated to Saint Therese of Lisieux and can accommodate up to 4,000 people. It is the second largest pilgrimage site in France, drawing over two million visitors annually. The church houses the relic of St.
Basilica was closed when we got there. We went too early. Check the schedule before going. We only saw the surroundings and not the inside. We couldn't stay longer due to our structured schedule. We were a big group of pilgrims and needed to keep our schedules. Hopefully, we can return in the future🙏. You can also visit the Chapel of St. Therese, which is a few miles away from the Basilica.

I was over the moon to have stumbled across this magnificent Basilica . In my ignorance I had never heard of Saint Therese of Lisieux , I certainly have now . What a glorious memorial to her this glorious building is . I could have spent days here and loved every minute of it . Bravo to the designers and builders . The locals must be very proud of Saint Therese herself and their memorial to her . I am so grateful to have been given the chance to visit . Merci Beaucoup .

Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
Sacred & Religious Sites
Lisieux Cathedral, located in the historic town of Lisieux in Normandy, is a significant religious site dedicated to St. Therese, a revered figure in the town's history. The cathedral was constructed over 60 years and stands as a blend of Norman Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles. Despite being less famous than some other cathedrals, it remains an impressive and solemn place to visit.
Being a complete Cathedral/Church fanatic, I was more than pleased to get the opportunity to visit this amazing place . Lisieux is an amazing commune In Normandy and seems a wonderful place to live . The Cathedrale Saint Pierre de Lisieux just one of its attractions . I spent about an hour and a half in here and loved it very peaceful . I lit a candle, said a prayer for mum, and dad and admired the wonderful architecture . I particularly loved the alter with an illuminated Christ underneath it guarded by two angels I believe . It stands in a rather attractive market square . Well worth visiting in my humble opinion . Oh I loved the crucifix too .

Marcel Proust and his driver came to view the façade and doors of Lisieux Cathedral in the early 1900s. They arrived after sunset and so lit up the building with the headlamps of the car.

I really don’t know how this place had a 4.5 in reviews. I tried different plates not to base my review in just one things but: - Pasta: overcooked, tasteless, lacked flavour and character -Burger: the bread was hard like it was done for 3 days -Pizza: Tasted like bending machine pizza. Frozen pizzas are better Couldn’t finish my plate. It was overpriced. I just write reviews when I am really disappointed.

I ordered some times to take away, we were served quite quickly and the pizzas were really tasty. One time I came to eat in the restaurant, it was full, we were glad we had a reservation ! The decoration is good end the menue is varied (from a salad to pastas, burgers and pizzas). The food was really good and the waiters/waitresses were efficient and welcoming. The only thing I would have to say is that the tables downstairs are quite close to each other. If you want good a take away pizza or a nice italian restaurant it is a great place!

(Translated by Google) One star because I can't give less, it's been 2 times that we've come, 2 times that it's closed, even though we called before. It’s 6:10 p.m., when we arrive at the door we are told that it is closed, they didn’t want to know. It would therefore be a question of changing your schedule and saving us a 40-minute drive for nothing. Bunches of incapable, unfriendly people :). (Original) Une étoile parce que je ne peux pas mettre moins, ça fait 2 fois que nous venons, 2 fois que c’est fermé, alors que nous avons appelé avant. Il est 18h10, quand on arrive à la porte on nous dis que c’est fermé, ils ont rien voulu savoir. Il s’agirait donc de modifier vos horaires et nous éviter 40min de route pour rien.

Incredible food here!! I came here with my boyfriend and his grandmother and it was so delicious - vegetable stew, meats, kir, wine. The building is atmospheric on the inside with Eastern style decor and the food was truly amazing. If I'm ever in Lisieux again I'll definitely be coming back! The lamb was fantastic

Creperie
French restaurant
La Chandeleur is a charming little creperie located in the heart of Lisieux, known for its delightful atmosphere and friendly service. The new owners have brought a fresh vibe to this cozy spot, where guests can indulge in an array of delicious crepes and galettes that evoke the flavors of Brittany. Visitors rave about the generous portions and unique combinations, such as the Creole sweet crepe featuring pineapple and banana.
I went to "La Chandeleur" last year with my family. We chose this restaurant because of it's really good location and because of it's menu. They had no big tables so maybe they can change that but the waiters found a solution to prepare a table for us. The dishes were really good, it reminded of me Brittany. The main dishes were big portions so we couldn't eat something else. But we wanted to taste the desserts. So we shared the desserts all together. It was the first restaurant I've tried in Lisieux and it was a really good one. I recommend it !

The sweet crepes that we had were fantastic. The Creole one had a very good combination of tastes: sweet with a little of citrus from the pineapple and moisture from the banana.

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Historical place museum
Château de Saint-Germain-de-Livet is a charming moated castle with a small park and three peacocks. Guided tours are available in French and English every hour, offering visitors an insightful one-hour experience. Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed inside the castle or the park. While the interior of the building is undergoing renovation and not accessible, visitors can explore the garden and inner courtyard for free.
This is just such a beautiful chateau - has to be seen. Not grand - and we only walked round the outside (the inside was closed to visitors) but it was well worth the drive from Trouville. A baking hot day when we visited so the cool of the neighbouring tea rooms was most welcome as were the refreshing pots of specialist teas. A delightful place to spend a couple of hours if you are in the area. Check opening times (closes at lunchtime) - parking opposite is free.
Huw S — Google review
Beautiful castle and its surroundings,no charge to enter the garden and inner courtyard as the interior of the building is still under renovation. There are several free guided 20min tours (in french or english should there be enough foreigners) during which you enter into the inner courtyard. Cool to spend an hour admiring the area,there is a nice tea salon overlooking the castle but it was closed when we were there a week ago.

Magnificent little castle with a nice a garden. The interior is currently closed (summer 22) for renovations but the gardens and outside facades are still worth the visit. Guided tours are available free of charge every hour, a great way to learn more with a professional historian!
Alexander M — Google review
What a gorgeous and peaceful place to visit. The front clerk was very helpful and spoke English while helping with our bad French. Easy parking right across the street and an easy path around the outside grounds of the site. If walking to the side, there is a bubbling stream and was so serene. Visited in April and everything smelled so fresh. Ducks were swimming in the moat and the peacocks were making their calls. The inside was still under renovation, but it was free to view the garden and take your time. There is small church across the street to explore and old cemetery. I strongly recommend to visit if you're looking for some peace and nature.

During our recent stop in Lisieux, we discovered the delightful Pizza House, a perfect spot for a quick meal. The friendly staff made us feel right at home, and their fabulous pizzas truly hit the spot! We were pleasantly surprised by the generous portion sizes and diverse menu that included everything from kebabs to chicken tenders and even fish and chips. The service was impressively fast, ensuring we didn't have to wait long to enjoy our delicious food.
We stopped in Lisieux for a night and wanted a quick bite to eat. The staff were very friendly and the pizzas were fabulous! And ŵe love pizza. Would highly recommend. The prices are good but they gave us a free pizza and told us we were welcome anytime ( we are British travelling through France and you don't always get such a nice welcome)
